Wallace Kantai appointed CBK communications boss

Wallace Kantai appointed CBK communications boss

About six months ago, Nation Media Group put in place a new convergence model which collapsed all its business platforms – including print, digital and TV – into one and placed it under Business Daily. These business platforms, which were formerly under Wallace Kantai, were then placed under Business Daily’s Managing Editor, Ochieng Rapuro.

Whispers indicate that most Nation Media Group employees were not happy with this decision, and Wallace Kantai is said to have  disagreed with the top brass at NMG over the decision.

And so, in a hush move, Wallace Kantai packed up and left NMG.

Today, in a press statement released to media houses, Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) announced that it had appointed Wallace Kantai as it’s new Head of Communications.

The statement, in part, reads: “During his media career, Wallace has interviewed and interacted with many world and regional leaders, heads of global businesses and policymakers. He has also served as moderator for a number of high level panels and conferences.”

Wallace Kantai takes over from Grace Okara, the former Head of P.R and Communications.
